Rumor: Sprint to Spinoff Nextel

Fact, Sprint prior to Nextel was consumer oriented. Nextel was prodomonately business customer oriented. As a consultant I had many county government with large accounts and desiring Nextel to expand coverage in Area.

I recently met business customer with workers scattered across several states with Nextel with push to talk and group talk. When Sprint took over he add computers and air cards to all his people. Big account for Sprint. Sprint trying to moving Nextel to its network screwed up. Service turned bad, hours on phone, prices incorrect, network up and down. I heard yesterday they have shut down Sprint Service. In talking with the nuts and bolts of the organization, techicians, engineers, and customer service, they are lost trying to be everything to everyone. As one told me, Nextel is a different product for a different market. Sprint needs to separate it wireless for the kids and its wireless for the business.

Stock will hit $4.10 be action is taken to get it right.
